Today as I (reluctantly) purchased a hot chocolate from Starbucks I wonder how much a difference it would make if baristas assumed that all drinks for "for here." Did you even know that Starbucks serves coffee in mugs if you ask? How much of an impact would it make on the environment, if any? And what would it say about our crazy society if one only assumed people had enough time to sit down and enjoy their drink instead of scuttling off onto the road gulping it down between breaths?
